Evaluation of antitumor potential of an anti-glypican-1 monoclonal antibody in preclinical lung cancer models reveals a distinct mechanism of action.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The main objective of this study was to investigate the antitumor effect of a mouse anti-human glypican-1 (GPC1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) on non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and associated molecular mechanisms.

Methods

The anti-proliferative and anti-migratory activities of anti-GPC1 mAb were examined in A549 and H460 NSCLC cells and LL97A lung fibroblasts. The inhibitory effect of anti-GPC1 mAb on tumor growth was evaluated in an orthotopic lung tumor model.

Results

The in vitro study showed that anti-GPC1 mAb profoundly inhibited the anchorage-independent growth of A549 and H460 NSCLC cells and exhibited relatively high cytotoxic activities towards LL97A lung fibroblasts, A549/LL97A and H460/LL97A coculture spheroids. Moreover, anti-GPC1 mAb significantly
